    Second American Revolution

    Jaye discusses Project 2025, the 900-page wishlist from the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank that is arguably the most influential group in US politics. She discusses its ties to former president Donald Trump, lists several of its policy proposals, and the four pillars of this plan. Jaye warns listeners of how important voting in the 2024 US presidential election is in preventing Trump and the Heritage Foundation from executing their goal of reshaping America into a Christian nationalist authoritarian ethnostate.

    Broke the Bread, Spilled the Tea: Conversation with Mitchell Kesller

    CONTENT WARNING: This episode includes brief discussion of abuse and suicide. Listener discretion is advised. Author Mitchell Kesller joins Jaye for a meaningful conversation about his debut book, Broke the Bread, Spilled the Tea. Broke the Bread, Spilled the Tea seeks to bridge the gap between Christian faith and LGBTQ+ identity, making the case that there is much more to faith in Christ than what is often preached on Sunday mornings. This fascinating, in-depth discussion touches on the harm done to the LGBTQ+ community by the American church, apologetics, the politicization of conservative Christianity, separation of church and state, the search for a deeper understanding of God and the Bible, and more.

    Harder Core Urban Legends

    In a public release of this bonus episode originally released on Patreon in November 2019, Jaye talks more urban legends by discussing a couple of processed food-related legends. Is McDonalds adding animal byproducts and other gross fillers to their hamburgers? Are popular meat substitutes such as Beyond Burger and the Impossible Burger "indistinguishable" from dog food? Jaye also provides a bit of historical context for Americans' distrust of corporations involved in food processing, which often drives food-related urban legends.
